Mum invoices son £21,000 for supporting him for over a year (including a £500 charge for being an asshole)

An Ontario mum, fed up of her 23-year-old son taking her for granted decided to leave an invoice in his room for a year’s worth of support payments.

It included a $1,000 CAD (£500) surcharge for ‘being an asshole’.

Redditor Chalipo, a full time student, shared a copy of the invoice online yesterday, explaining that he’d been living at home for around 13 months.

The invoice (for services delivered in the last 13 months in addition to five years’ tuition expenses) included his share of all the household bills, plus cleaning and vacuuming services, and ‘incidental food/sundries’ taken from the kitchen.

Notably, ‘contributions from spouse’ i.e. his father, were listed as a big fat zero.

After some Redditors criticised mum for making parenting into a financial transaction, she went online to stress that the invoice wasn’t real – she was just frustrated and wanted to prove a point.

‘This was done in 5 minutes of anger,’ she explained. ‘He is lucky and doesn’t realise it’.

And it seems Chalipo has learnt his lesson. ‘This was a very effective parenting technique and it has helped me to realize what an entitled little shit I have been,’ he later wrote. ‘I hope to one day be successful enough to support my family and repay her, but she doesn’t expect me to.’
